The Citywide picture

Growth projections by school district

Why this matters (challenges and opportunities)

What “levers” does the city have to positively influence how/where household and job growth occurs

PEG DISCUSSION: Mapping Exercise (60 minutes)

Facilitator: Clark Worth; Deborah SteinDescription: Using an East Portland school district case study, explore how different growth patterns and investment strategies can positively or negatively affect key community assets (schools, parks, safe routes, libraries, other) that support youth success.

How well do concepts for “centers and corridors” apply in this district?

What land use changes, capital investments and/or regulatory measures are needed for this concept to apply successfully here?

What new opportunities are there for partnerships (e.g., co-location of K-12 schools with institutions?)

From this exercise, what can we apply to other school districts?
